TAKE CHENEY AWAY
12/16/2005
It's time that we Americans finally admit the obvious:
***** Cheney is insane.
I say this with no malice, but in the sincere hope that his loved ones
and close political cohorts will do the compassionate thing, gently
leading him off the national stage to some quiet, dark, soft spot
where he can rest for a very long time and try to collect his wits.
Of course, ***** has never been too tightly wrapped.
He's a sour, snarly sort of guy, quick to snap at anyone who crosses
him.
Then there's that sneering smile of his, slashing across his face like
the smile of a landlord who just evicted another widow.
Also, we've long been exposed to a high level of Cheney's chronic
sense of omnipotence (manifested in his blatant acts of cronyism with
Halliburton) and to his frequent bouts of psychotic delusion (such as
his maniacal insistence that the occupied people of Iraq would
gratefully shower our troops with rose petals).
But recently, ***** seems to have gone from being merely unbalanced ...
to unhinged.
For example, he has been the twisted force so ferociously trying to
stop congress from declaring as official policy that the U.S.
government will not engage in torture.
Even the Republican-controlled senate voted 90 to 9 against torture,
but this has not deterred Cheney, who has continued snarling and
snapping like a mad dog to keep torture in the toolkit of American
foreign policy.
Speaking of snapping, ***** has also been frothing at Democrats who've
been making the obvious point that the BushCheney regime misled the
nation about their reasons for invading Iraq.
He snarled that such Democrats are "dishonest and reprehensible," as
well as "corrupt and shameless."
Excuse us, *****, but you've just attacked 57 percent of the American
people who now agree that you Bushites "deliberately misled" us about
the war.
This is Jim Hightower saying... Cheney's favorable ratings are already
down to 19 percent.
Mad Cow disease ranks higher!
Time to take ***** away.
